In a significant move, former Racing player Edu Bedia, a seasoned 34-year-old midfielder from Santander, is on the verge of joining El Malecón. The agreement between Gimnástica and Edu Bedia is comprehensive, with the final step awaiting the termination of his contract with Gokulam FC, a Second Division team in India.
Edu Bedia’s football journey has seen him play for notable clubs like Racing, Salamanca, Hércules, Oviedo, 1860 München (Germany), Barça B, Real Zaragoza, FC Goa (India), and Gokulam FC (India). The midfielder, hailing from Santander, made his mark in the First Division, contributing to UEFA appearances and scoring a crucial goal against Honka Espoo.
While La Gimnástica has officially welcomed offensive midfielder Chus Ruiz from Vélez, they face the task of managing the transfer to register Edu Bedia’s signing. Additionally, Chus Puras bids farewell to the season due to a meniscus injury, prompting efforts by Luis Fernando Varela, Christian Fernández, and Siro del Barrio to strengthen the defensive line.
The spotlight remains on the pending contract termination with Gokulam Kerala, a vital step in finalizing Edu Bedia’s return to El Malecón.
